2009 Omlet cube and run for sale

[Ailie]

This week, Corporal Cluck has shed enough feathers in the run to stuff a small duvet. I don't know how she hasn't ended up totally bald.

 

My question is this: when I scoop out their poo festooned aubiose and chuck it in the compost bin, is it okay to leave the feathers in there? I did this yesterday, but now I'm having a worry about whether they're okay in the compost.

 

Any ideas?

Ignore me! I found an answer to my question elsewhere! In case anyone else is wondering, feathers are fine to compost (full of lovely nitrates), but they might take a while to fully decompose.
